Dancing at Lughnasa

"The Irish drama Dancing at Lughnasa comes to DVD with a widescreen transfer that preserves the original theatrical aspect ratio of 1.85:1. The English soundtrack is rendered in Dolby Digital Stereo, and English, Spanish, and French soundtracks are accessible. Supplemental materials include theatrical trailers and filmographies of the cast. Although there is a lack of quality extras on this release, the film itself transfers well to the small screen; the performances seem to be all the more intimate. Meryl Streep's fine performance may be a special enough feature to interest film fans in this DVD."
